Those of you of a certain age will no doubt have fond memories of Jim Henson’s Muppets on your TVs and in your cinemas. Before the age of internet brain rot, Henson’s work brought a level of creativity and wonder to the minds of young and old alike that just isn’t the same today.

Now, you have the opportunity to discover how the Muppets actually came to be and to take a glimpse into Henson’s creative process. QAGOMA is exhibiting Jim Henson‘s puppets, sets and props from well known productions like The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, The Dark Crystal and more. This ticketed exhibition is really worthwhile and a great day out.

For various reasons, I took the bus to QAGOMA to see this one rather than riding so this little post is not strictly bike related. But, if it helps, in the days after seeing the exhibition I felt the need to buy and re-watch The Dark Crystal which required me to ride to a nearby retailer to purchase the DVD (I’m one of those weirdos who still enjoys physical media). Just as well I did too because the rain on that day meant that the line of cars into Westfield Chermside was next level whereas I was able to ride in and ride out completely care free. Convenience is always just a few pedal strokes away.
